Of course, as with any intervention, we're only doing this because we care. At
the very least, you'll learn something you didn't know about ActiveRecord, that
helps you avoid these gotchas in your applications. But I hope that you'll
leave inspired to contribute to ActiveRecord, engage in discussion about its
direction with the core team, and therefore improve the lives of your fellow
Rails developers.

WARNING: We will be reading the ActiveRecord code in this talk. Not for the
faint of heart.
